Swordtails should not be in saltwater, although they probably could tolerate it for some time, eventually their kidneys are gonna fail. Molly's on the other hand adapt quite well to saltwater/brackish conditions because they are often found in these conditions in the wild. I don't believe this is true for the swordtails, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.
